Employees that do not have required optional skills can select shifts in RTSS

The registry parameter ALLOW_MVS_OPT_SKILLS has been introduced to allow employees to select shifts in Self Scheduling when they are missing optional skill qualifications. When this registry is set to TRUE, employees may select shifts where they do not meet one or more optional skill qualifications, as long as they have the required mandatory skill and job qualifications. When this registry is set to FALSE, employees may only select shifts if they have all the required qualifications, including jobs, mandatory skills, and optional skills.

See "Adding skills to shifts" in the Infor Workforce Management MVS Implementation and Administration Guide.
